Re: PO has me PO'd
I wonder is I can get that walrus grain in bulk, or even the scroll pattern, i know the seat cover makers get it from somewhere, maybe we can get a hold of some?? I asked Tim about utilities and regular bucket covers in highlander, said it couldn't be done? I am sure someone can do it, maybe his shop is too busy with the regular stuff to take on a sort of custom job/ set of covers??

Re: PO has me PO'd

Re: PO has me PO'd
Well, realizing that I am extremely anal, I think I will drill another hole below the existing one, rite where the 4 detents line up horizontally...Maybe GM did that for a reason
Time to go buy a stepper drill Now to find out where it plugs into the fuse block

Re: PO has me PO'd
Or you could use one of the empty spots in the new terminal block. NAPA has the proper crimp connectors, both male and female. The wire would never be noticed.

Re: PO has me PO'd

a full M&H kits adds up to $600+ doesn't it?
